as a person from boston and around boston, i can say this is fairly common bc of old weird houses
the first one got my heartt
9:22 My mom's house was built in the 1800's and has a tree trunk in the middle of the basement. It's quite thick and isn't going anywhere.
@13:55- the iron ring in the sidewalk is what people tied their horses to back in the day.
and motorcycles nowadays :-)
My husband and I flipped/remodeled houses and some of what we saw was truly frightening
Thanks for this video - reminded me I needed to change the filter on my furnace!!
12:47 The chimney was made like that,so in a heavy rain the stove or furnace would not get as wet . Not a straight shot down to the pit.
... but a chimney should be straight to prevent fire?
@@Sigart I asked my father in law who is a Manson about the chimney in a apartment I bought 35 years ago. That was the answer he gave me. Coal will not leave Soot in the chimney,coal dust but not soot.
@@Sigart extremely common in old houses, sometimes referred to as a "witches crook" if you feel like looking it up.
13:53 is an old horse ring used to tie horses when horse and buggies were common. We still have well preserved ones alongside our church here in Portland.
3:01 I think it's an old cistern. Downspouts would have directed rainwater into it. Probably pumped out with a hand pump usually placed close to the kitchen.
Unless there's a kiln on the other side, I think you're right.
If was cistern they used it for bathing and such to safe well water we did all use it for watering the garden between rains.
0:40 these were installed with a pulley above the top door for lifting big furniture to the second floor. They work great.
God Bless our building inspectors and code enforcement people
Never know what's behind closed doors. I live in a rental unit l thought everything looked fine. One day my husband left for work before me and l heard the tap running l go look and the hose under the bathroom sink disconnected water flowing everywhere and hot. I found the shut off valve but stiff and hard to move finally got it shut off but 1/2 to 1 inch water needing to be mopped. Can you imagine if l was not home l still have nightmares. It may look good but on closer inspection not so. Thanks for sharing.
I know that tune. I was lying in bed one night when I heard the toilet start filling. As I live alone, this was a surprise. Went into the bathroom and found water everywhere; the toilet tank had cracked.
On the upside, there are hoses you can get for your toilet and sink that will shut down the flow if it goes on for too long. Got them two days later.
I work for the water company, once a month that type of thing happens. It sucks, things rot boilers blow, pipe freeze and split etc.
Even though we may not think about them often, it's good to exercise water shut off valves around the house yearly so they'll work when needed.
4:40 - The rotating floor disc is actually not a bad idea.
Dodge the builder,
Can he fix it!
Dodge the builder,
NO HE CAN'T!
😂🤣😂🤣😂
Remember how people use to make chains out of beer tabs? I bought a house and needed to get behind the wall under the kitchen sink... big leak problem. Got the wall down only to find out someone made a beer tab chain to hold up a water pipe.
Did it work?
@@ceilingunlimited2430 ha ha no, hence the leaky wall I had to take apart.
I'm not a beer drinker, but I'm assuming part of the answer was to drink more beer. My list of hated home chores is 1) breaking up ice dams 2) leaf raking 3) ANYTHING having to do with water because the answer always lies underneath or behind something and is a total knucklebuster every time, and every time you finish the chore, you say to yourself "I shouldn't have to mess with that again....for about five years."
@@ceilingunlimited2430 I have no idea why they did it, I'm not a drinker. It was sold to me that way.
I haven't even worked with housing that many times, but this video gives me anxiety.
I cracked up so hard at the mother in law door 🤣🤣🤣
5:54 that’s kinda... pushing it too far
...we need to get our house inspected soon so we can fully purchase it. These make me feel SO much better at what we need to fix.
My first house had a working fuse panel - 10 amp service. With 30 amp fuses screwed in. It was double-tapped into a circuit breaker box - the inspector was horrifed.
just, Wow.
that ladder on the roof is a good one. go out the window if there is a fire and not slip off the roof.
Interesting, sure interesting indeed...
I'm a perfectionist, after the pics I was screaming on the inside. Why can't people do stuff, not almost, but actually do it?!?
Almost
14:05 Someone forgot the caption covers the thing that someone forgot: a drain hole.
The mother-in-law door is waiting for the deck guy to arrive. In Maine it's a snow door.
Nothing wrong with a fuse box.
"Hope the rock doesn't move" is repeated from another angle.
Dryer exhausts in the attic is incredibly common. Usually the roof guy missed it.
Kitchen in bathroom is very common during a whole house remodel by homeowner.
@BariumCobaltNitrog3n If it was forgotten, how can it be covered up?
And what is the silver disk behind the caption (very briefly visible as the caption rolls into place) if not a drain plug?
I was thinking they thought the faucet was missing, which it seems to be, is the tub filled through those small holes?
I'm thinking they're water jets?
Wash dishes while you're on the crapper🤣🤣🤣
Great, GREAT video. Scary at times but overall I laughed and laughed. Thank you. Keep them coming
.................somebody has to insure firefighters stay employed !
Good point.
7:17 "When one is not enough and two are too few" :D :D
This photo series was stolen from a website called Bored Panda.
Stairs to nowhere is cool tho
Imagine living in a country so free that you get dictated what you can and cannot do in your own home.
These examples in this video are the reason why we have codes and restrictions
@@SuV33358 codes for the government to babysit you at home?
1:00 Those Boston apartments can be quite small. 😂
If you guys are wondering why things are so far off it only takes like a mm to be off a inch , and over Time things shift
9:10 what is this thing for? I’ve never seen it anywhere.
0:16 why is there one lock knob facing as if it's meant to lock someone or something in the bathroom?
The deadbolt is also double key...not good.
@@kjc472 I just puked in my mouth a little.
Jail or halfway house.
0:16, there are a design flaw with the door lock handle outside bathroom, or it's a prisonner room? lol
At 1:50 Really (SHOCKING, how much they POURED it on...)
That bathroom is definitely either Brooklyn/NYC in general or LA!
Missed it by thisssss much.
Golly; I know that Music!!!! I have used it before myself!!!!
The top dead bolt on the bathroom door shown from 0:14 to 0:18 is orientated the wrong way. It actually would lock you in the bathroom from the outside and not lock others out.
Bethany Audition I wonder if the people were investigated for kidnapping or child abuse.
@@653j521 Or maybe just put there to keep toddlers from.. I don't know flushing things like socks, washcloths, or their Hotwheels down the toilet, and costing their parents 700 dollars to repair. I have 8 sons... would you like to know what they did with their female cousins' mermaid barbie? Yep... my toilet... I have plans to go around to each of their homes and flush things as soon as each one of them buys a house. That and teach each of my grandchildren every single thing their fathers did.
@@shawnsisler3743 the difference is that they didn't know any better, but YOU do!
Wow
12:51 downdraft stove.
12:49 Intentionnel of course ,some great work !
Wouldn't wanna live in any of these in a cyclone or earthquake!
...yep, buildings just waiting for an earthquake to happen !
Only made it half way through...
WOW
The toilet in the kitchen😱 they should at least put up a divider. A piece of wood. A curtain. Anything. I could think of what how unhygienic that is. I get that’s the only place, but still....
The garage door with the garden outside is fine. New medel homes will often do this for curb appeal then pave the driveway once the model is sold. Otherwise, awesome video.
And many times a garage will be converted into a family room.
Might be a couple years ago but all of these things in this video are being done now in 2023 by the Spanish construction crews the best of all it's only in new construction where you see this
Grew up in JP, houses were solid for the 1890s. When you try to add a bunch of modern amenities and your constructions skills are weak, that is where you get most of shoddy workmanship you see here.
HOW THE HELL !!!!! Some of these are atrocious, almost criminal lack lack if care l.
0:15 who are they locking in that bathroom? A double keyed deadbolt and one of the top deadbolts has the knob on the exterior of the bathroom.
Evidently the door can be locked from both sides. My guess is that it is a shared bathroom between two suites. There's probably another door out of sight with same setup.
I lived in a place like that, but only a privacy set (push and twist button on doorknob) in bath, and a deadbolt on other side of each door.
I apologize in advance for my naive question but ... are there no laws in The States to forbid this "creativity"?
Greetings from Germany ☝️🧐
There are laws in most states to prevent the "creativity", but we have many building supply stores that will sell you everything for a DIY project that you do without a permit and no inspection. Some states allow a homeowner to do his own electrical and plumbing work. If you sell the house it's up to the buyer to pay for an inspection, and sometimes they don't bother.
@@Bobrogers99 Thanks for your answer!
At least it's an interesting job....
4:40 FYI it is a steel plate that rotates via key fob.
I don’t get the stair one 0:28 , am I missing something?
3:03 is it the back side of a pizza oven?
th ring in the curb was to tether the horses .....granny90
Wait. Now I want to move to Boston
Because of the first one........
Homeowner. House is 79 years old. Watching this on a Friday evening isn't helping any.
9.13 What is it?
I'm German. I don't understand.
We have rules for this.
9:12 - Telephone alcove
0:46 Guess I'm not mistaken when I thought the new readers stick out more.
The brick dome that says I have no idea is either an old handmade coal oven or a boiler for hot water way back when or ya know a crematorium or torcher cell whatever no big deal
I'm not mad at some
The second pic with bathroom door locks is fucked!! Did any of you notice that the locks were not for privacy in the bathroom............ but, for locking someone in the bathroom??? Had to do a double take but, yeah, I'm right!!
I can explain the picture at 7:50. It is obviously a parent who is wise enough to hid the snacks so the kidos will not eat them all and every parent know where to hid snacks from their kids. Most kids are not gonna look in a dishwasher so that makes it the perfect hiding place for things you don't want your little ones to find.😅😅😅
@0:18 privacy or looking in? There appears to be at least one lock on the outside.
02:48 every other house I’ve been to on the Res.
Most of this can never happen in Germany....the laws are extremly strict
Windgeist Or the vast majority of the US.
Dann schau dir lieber nicht die Elektrik in unserem Haus an...
thank god for the mute button
0:15 WTF? The top deadbolt locks from the OUTSIDE so it would lock someone IN the bathroom.
3:33 bet the acoustics are AMAZING... and mebbe they installed a gasket so the only person you're committing a war-crime on is yourself?
20 years ago when we installed the first electric garage door opener for my grandmother we installed the sensors about 2 feet from the floor so that she wouldn't smash her car accidentally. No small kids or pets around. You know how seniors can get flustered when not accustomed to modern technology.
The ring in the concrete is for a dog chain just not a very big one
the bathroom door with locks on both sides...is somebodys child being locked in !? theres no good reason for having that... scary :(
It might be to keep a child out of the bathroom. Toddlers can drown in the toilet. So, there’s a good reason!
14:00 code is probably "1234 ENTER" looking at the color/dirt.
They're are still 23 other possibilities using 1,2,3,4.
Was there no better option for background music?? No option to have no sound or music at all??
You can mute the video.
Would Miley Cyrus's "Wrecking Ball" be appropriate?
0:18 trust me, a toddler will be in under 30 seconds...9:45 the octopus, haven't seen one in years, still have the scars...
Added bonus, the octo's were usually lined with asbestos.
@@joka7316 You're right, I'd forgotten about that. But I attended schools (in the 40s and 50s) which had asbestos insulation in the walls, ceilings and the furnace and have no lung problems. Personally, I think the asbestos scare was the Covid of my generation, overblown. But that's a different discussion...
@@haroldwilkes6608 Asbestos is perfectly safe unless you disturb it and create airborne particles. I taught in a school with a steam heating system, and the basement pipes were all covered with asbestos. Also with floor tiles containing asbestos and covered with carpeting. All quite safe. Eventually parents got upset and it cost mucho dollars of education money to remove it all.
@@Bobrogers99 Ditto my school, Randolph Macon Academy, pretty and historical but it was a little run down so it was closed and torn down.
I didn’t realize Boston is in a third-world country!
You had one job for a copy I can get you some of my failed is!!!!
😮😮😮😮
at 4-49 who is going to tie the ladder in 3 places.
The door at ca 6:07 has a logical explanation. There were steps and they removed them cuz they obviously started painting the wall and ain’t finished yet. 🤷🏼♀️
can someone plz explain 9:13 ?
that is a shelf for a rotary telephone and a place to hold the telephone directory.
@@RR-qe4rs k thanks am a young person
7:27 I don’t think it is missing anything at all or am i blind. 😂😂
Missing the last step. I don't know what 9:13 is for. You?
@@shannonp4037 land line telephone and the phone book
@@lethargicmotorsport2025 Thanks
We just had them sitting on the counter. "Fancy" house.
Scary
Fun video, but the music is awful. Please, for the love of all that is right in this world, make it stop!
Yet to see the third world eh?
14:03 .... is not weird. My garage door keypad is like that. Put in 4 digits (the code) then hit the "ENTER" button. Enter button is like a notification to the system that you're done inputting numbers.
I could be wrong, however I think they were referring to what the actual digits of the security code are based on how dirty (frequently used) specific numbers are versus the “enter button” as the enter button is still very common today on remote entry pads.
10:26 what is that ?
A vintage hand-operated water well pump dating back from the turn of the 19th century.
Thank you....I had no clue
Bruh 400k+ subs 10 comments?
13.53 what is it?
Place to tie your horse?
@@rabidsamfan, that's right - tethering rings for the reins.
@@rabidsamfan My guess too.
@@rabidsamfan Or your boat?
@@653j521 Maybe if there were streets like that close to the harbor. Would have to be the North End, I should think.
Hello! I am a small youtuber who has been watching this channel for some time now! Idk what place I go in for what number I chatted in!
Why bother . keep the stink out
I gave up, that piano music just too much.
